The Korean Alphabet: An Introduction to Hangeul at FutureLearn Course details
- Hanguel, also spelt Hangul or Hang ?l, is the alphabetic system used for writing the Korean language.
- Known as Chon muntcha in North Korea, it consists of 24 letters including 14 consonants and ten vowels.
- The name combines the ancient Korean word han ('great'), and geul ('script'). The word han is used to refer to Korea in general, so the name also means 'Korean script'.
- This course is an introduction to the basics of Hanguel including the principles and systems of consonants and vowels, as well as an exploration of the creation and use of Hangeul in a wider historical context.
